At NASA, we're celebrating the first day of fall, and "sweater weather" in the days ahead. Apollo 17 astronauts Eugene Cernan and Harrison Schmitt sported layers during their 1971 trip to Flagstaff, AZ, where they trained for their Moon landing mission using "Grover," the https:
Eugene Cernan and Harrison Schmitt ride a training version of the lunar roving vehicle named Grover in this scene taken during lunar exploration training in Flagstaff, Arizona. Cernan wears plaid pants, boots, two shirts, sunglasses, and a yellow and green hat. Schmitt is less visible but wears a hat and sunglasses. Both of them wear cameras on their chests and bulky backpacks that mimic the spacesuits they will wear on the Moon.

A new perspective! 🛰️ Voyager 1 had been in space for two weeks and was 7.25 million miles (>11 million km) away OTD in 1977 when it captured this view of the whole Earth and the Moon in the same frame. It was our first image of the kind, but definitely not our last. 1. Voyager

A NASA camera aboard the Deep Space Climate Observatory (DSCOVR) satellite captured a unique view of the far side of the Moon as it moved in front of the sunlit side of Earth in this image taken in July 2015 from about 1 million miles from Earth. Credit: NASA
A camera aboard Artemis I took this photo of the Earth and the Moon as they appeared on Day 13 of its mission as it reached 268,563 miles away from Earth. The Orion spacecraft appears in the foreground on the left. Credit: NASA
The Artemis II astronauts captured this photo of a crescent Moon (left, foreground) and Earth (right) on April 6 of this year. Seen from behind the Moon, its surface appears in sharp detail in the foreground, while Earth sits much farther away, smaller and softly lit in the background. A faint reflection in the spacecraft window is also visible, subtly overlaying the scene. Though their phases differ, both are shaped by the same sunlight, revealing the geometry of the Sun–Earth–Moon system from deep space. Credit: NASA

Sunrise, sunset 🏜️ To mark Curiosity’s 5,000th Martian day on the Red Planet, the rover’s team created this postcard. It combines two panoramas, with blue colors representing images taken in the morning, and yellow colors for the images taken at dusk. 1/2 https://t.co/ibiWmU1bS
A panoramic view of a rocky desert landscape. Hills of layered rock stand in the background. The image has two predominant colors: blue tones for the portions of the image captured in the morning, and warmer tones for the portions captured in the eventing. In the foreground is the back half of a robotic Mars rover, with two of its wheels, its top deck, antennas, and its thermal generator visible. Credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech

"It's going, it's really going." 60 years ago today, Commander Pete Conrad raved as the Agena space vehicle raised the Gemini XI spacecraft to a record-high Earth orbit for a crewed spacecraft: 854 miles (1,374 km). This record stood until 2024 when the Polaris Dawn mission http

While it may look like abstract art, this image offers us clues to the internal structure and composition of the Moon! 15 years ago today, NASA's GRAIL mission launched to the Moon to measure its gravity in unprecedented detail. GRAIL pinpointed the locations of large, dense ht
This rectangular image appears as a brightly-colored abstract painting. Spots of red, ringed by blue circles are scattered over its surface. It is a mercator projection of the Moon's gravity field with red representing higher gravity and blue lower gravity regions. The center portion corresponds to the far side of the Moon whereas the edges correspond to the near side that we can see from Earth. This data was derived from NASA's GRAIL mission.

DYK the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope got an unexpected boost in 2012, when @NRO_gov gifted NASA two unused spy telescope mirrors? One of these mirrors was repurposed for Roman, enabling a wider field of view for its exploration of dark energy, exoplanets, and astrophysics.
